    What is the biggest you have seen?

    What is the largest HP outboard you have seen on 14 or foot or smaller v-hull boat without it being just an uncontrollable death trap?

    In the 70’s I had a 28 hp Evinrude on a ‘58 14’ molded plywood Wolverine
    33 mph
    Plenty quick for a 12 year old!

    Easy, Wildmans 13’ sort of Checkmate with a Promax. He is still alive, so not a complete death trap

    He might not be "still alive" if he ran it above 80. I agree Randy's 13' with a 225 takes the prize.

    I had a 16' Sabre was twin 120hp Chryslers with hi-speed gearcases, not sure how fast it was cause it would jump out of the water when you hit wide open.

    15' Allison with a 150XS merc. It was fun, fast, and a little scary. Just right, IMO

    A bud had a 16 Allison with a 235. He blew it over and sold it. The guy that bought it blew it over,but he didn't make it.
